My first Truck I just had to have it. 170 6 cyl with 3 on the tree and a busted *** colum shifter.My poor father worked on that Bronco so much he hated it.I loved it though.I remember everyone in school used to call it a Jeep and I would get so mad. Now look at me I own nothing but Jeeps.

First car was a 1981 VW Rabbit.
I can thank that pile of junk for getting me started with being a mechanic and working up from there.

1956 Chevy Bel Aire 210.
Dad gave it to me for my first birthday. Then he eventually sold it out from under me.
Someday I'll see if I can scan the old pics from 1986.

My first was a 1961 ragtop bug with a 2276cc engine in it. Bought it from our neighbours after there son passed away. I raced it all through high school and its funny when a little ole bug starts whopping stangs and camaros. It now is getting completely restored.
